Best buds

This is an eryngium or sea holly. It is a pretty beast and not necessarily easy to grow. We have another in the nearby back border, but it is a totally different variety.

Where did it come from? Who knows? But it’s growing out of a crack in the pavement narrower than my little finger. The article says it likes poor soil. I guess!

But wait! There’s more! Growing out of the same little bit of a crack in the pavement is also a mint plant. There are dozens paving slabs all around the house, but these two are thriving entertwined in one little sliver of soil. I don’t understand gardening at all.

Bananas. I think these two are honorary banana plants.
